Epson ActionLaser 1400, Reference Manual

Page: 49 / 95

The settings for Edge Smoothing are Off, Light, Medium
(default), and Dark Normally you should not need to change
the default setting. Probably you need to adjust Edge
Smoothing only in the following cases:
You notice the edges of text or line art are too light or dark.
To adjust for this, use the Light setting if the edges are too
dark, or use the Dark setting if the edges are too light.
Some graphics that include gray shading or a screen
pattern are improved when you turn off Edge Smoothing.
To change the Edge Smoothing setting:
1. From your software program, choose
Print
or
Page Setup
in the File menu.
2.
Then choose the Setup
option. (Depending on your software
program, you might need to
select Options
or
Printer.)
3. If necessary, select the ActionLaser 1400 in the list of printers.
(Not all software programs prompt you to select the printer.)
4. In the Setup dialog box for the ActionLaser 1400, choose the
Green tab.
5. Change the Edge Smoothing setting as appropriate.
6. Choose OK Then close all screens by choosing
OK
or
Close
as appropriate.
If your printed images still need to be improved, you probably
need to change the Toner Density setting. For a darker edge
smoothing setting, make the toner density lighter and vice
versa. See the next section, “Adjusting toner density.”
